Title: Missed treatment!
Post by: Whamo on February 28, 2018, 12:51:08 AM

I missed a treatment last night by accident.  I thought I was hooked up, but didn't notice I hadn't even started!  Ten hours later I checked, and I discovered my mistake.  I try not to miss treatments.

I do PD too and my neph has given me permission to skip one treatment/month.  She promises it won't kill me.  I think you're safe.

I couldn't tell you how many times while on PD that I got off to a very LATE start.  Usually forgetting to hit the 'Start' button.

I felt bloated so after a half-hour break I spent another 10 hours on my machine.  I feel great now that it's over.  It was kind of cold for So Cal today so I would have stayed in my room with its room heater anyways.

Remember the episode when Homer would not stop the car so Gampa Simpson could pee?     Homer ended up having to donate a kidney because Grampa's exploded.  "Kidney Trouble, Season 10, Episode 8" (google or youtube)

I never saw that one.  My dad looked like Sgt. Carter.  People would ask him for his autograph back in the day.

Do a title search within Youtube.  You can find it online.

My Dad was more like Archie Bunker.


I'm more like Meathead.
